Been getting deeper in to Stoic philosophy which is great! Seneca, Marcus Aurelius, Epiticus “you become what you give your attention to” - epiticus
What I love about the Stoics is it emphasizes the power of what you can control - which is yourself. Hold yourself to high standard but be gentle with others and always work to become a better person.
Also love Joseph Campbells works - power of myth, hero with a thousand faces - many great thought provoking nuggets proving the emotional challenges of the human existence have persisted and we have always sought answers. I love how he uses expanded across cultures that really to me - show the interconnectedness for the human experience
